One question on worldbuilding/creating characters. I have noticed that all the main characters in your universes are SupremelyCompetent® in something. Probably because they are all adults by now, but they either had family to teach them how to flash white, is a werewolf/vampire trained in an academy/their families, is an innkeeper with extensive training, or

On Mad Language Skills
Writer fatigue is a funny beast. It makes you feel like the wires have crossed. You know what you want to say, but something quite different comes out. It’s almost as if the words with similar meaning are tossed into the bin, and my brain randomly pulls one out, looks at it, and goes, “Eh,

Inner Gollum
A Wednesday funny for you. Every writer has an inner Gollum. When they start a book, it’s all nice and Smeagol-like. “Look at this shiny idea! Isn’t it the greatest?” But sooner or later, Gollum comes out. “We hates the booksy! We hates it!” Why don’t you work on something else- “No! Our precious!” Here

Dragon and Tuna
It’s a beautiful Monday. The grass is green, the birds are singing, the sun is shining and I have a finish. This hasn’t been washed or ironed so it’s as is, grimy and all. I tried to take more pictures, but it didn’t quite work out. There is no cross stitch. There is only Tuna.

Yarn Love: Expect the Unexpected
Gordon collects action figures. (Please don’t send him any. He already has pretty much everything.) When a new package arrives to the house, he almost always informs me that the purchase is a “preorder.” As in, it wasn’t a recent splurge, but something that was paid for long ago. I don’t care if it’s preorder

The Beauty of the Audio Performance
This is the current state of our roof. We’ve had a thunderstorm last night and before that we had 2 days of hammering on the roof and the dogs barking in the yard. My apologies in advance if I make less sense than usual. Somehow the image seems appropriate to the subject matter of the

Magic Claims Updates
Magic Claims is finished. Woooo, made it! Yay! I have good news and bad news. Good news: Magic Claims is officially a novel at 63,000 words. What does that mean? Pages are not a good indicator.
